Abstract
The urinary calcium excretion has been determined in 19 patients with Bartter’s syndrome and found to be significantly lower than the calcium excretion in 92 healthy subjects (1.16±0.82 vs. 4.36±2.71 mmol/24 h, p2 vitamin D were normal. A low urinary calcium excretion appears to be a characteristic feature of Bartter’s syndrome. The cause remains unexplainedKeywords
